You can measure mountain height and ocean depth, but how test sarsaparilla? You could if you were chemists. But then do you need to test it? The World’s Fair Committee tested it,—and thoroughly. They went behind the label on the bottle. What did this sarsaparilia test result in? Every make of sarsaparilla shut out of the- Fair, except Ayer’s. So it was that Ayer’s was the only sarsaparilla admitted to the World’s Fair, The committee found it the best. They had no room for anything that was not the best. And as the best, Ayer’s Sarsa- parilla received the medal and awards due its merits. - Remember the word “best” is a bubble any breath can blow; but there are Those others are blowing more “best sarsaparilla” bubbies since the World’s Fair pricked the pins to prick such bubbles. old ones.

Professor Colby’s W onderful System for Teaching Adults to Speak German. Cl_‘wo years ago Frofessor W. Irving Coiby, the noted teacher and author, gave a five weeks' course in German in San Francisco, which was attended by seventy- fl_ve people, and the best of satisfaction given. Professor Colby will commence another course in the Y. M. C. A. Hall, corner Mason and Ellis streets, at 4 and 8 o’clock to-morrow night. His system is sosimple and easy that he can take a class of beginners and have them all talk- ing and reading German 1n half an hour. In fact, he has done this repeatedly. He uses his own textbook and arouses and maintains a wonderful interest. To fully appreciate the simplicity and rapidity of h’xs system one should drop in at 4 or 8 o’clock to-morrow night and listen to the exercises. Professor Colby is strongly in- dorsed from the Atlantic’ to the Pacific, having taught more than 10,000 people to speak German. He positively guarantees a speaking knowledge of German in five weeks or no charge. Only one hour per ‘day and no study outside is required. ——————— Celebrated His Honeymoon.

The exhibition of paintines and sketches is under the management this year of Henry Raschen, one of the ablest of local painters. Mr. Raschen has entered into the work with great enthusiasm, and so far has accomplished much that will re- dound to the suceess of the exhibition. 1n addition to his eagerness for a high- class display he entertains a sincere con- sideration for justice in the name of art, so it may not be said of him that any prefer- ences whatever could be noticed in his ad- justment of detais in connection with hanging and selecting pictures. “From t. e standpoint of art,”’ said he yesterday, ‘‘pictures worthy eof being ac- cepted shall be hung well. I shall not per- mit of any discrimination. “The art gallery this year will be mamly an exhibit_of local work, all very good stuff”—stuff in studio talk covers master- pieces as well as indifferent sketches. “I have set the standard of art high,” hecon- tinned, “and shall put the good work to- gether.

The smaller pictures will be on the line so they can be seen toadvantage. but the larger paintings will be well placed. “All the local artists are coming in with pictures in quantity as well as quality, and, so far, a very successful ex- hibition is assured.
